ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for applying connectors to multiconductor electrical flat cable includes a motorized cable feed mechanism for feeding predetermined lengths of cable past a power actuated cable cutter to a connector applying position. Power operated cable clamps are disposed on opposite sides of the connector applying position and are movable in the cable feeding direction to precisely locate the leading or trailing end of the cable at the connector applying position. Connector body and cover magazines are disposed adjacent to the connector applying position. A movable connector holding member includes spring biased jaws for releasably holding a connector body and cover spaced apart on opposite sides of a cable insertion slot. The connector holding member is moved from a connector loading position to the connector applying position wherein power actuated retractable rams are operable to apply a connector to a predetermined length of cable. The connector holding member may be rotated after connector parts are placed on the connector holding member to invert a connector with respect to the cable and other connectors applied to the cable.
